Kongens Lyngby

A fully-funded 3-year PhD position in organic chemistry, photocatalysis, C-H functionalization, and homogeneous enantioselective metal catalysis under the supervision of Associate Professor Søren Kramer is available at the Technical University of Denmark. The project will be performed in the Organic and Inorganic Chemistry Section at DTU Chemistry.

Research in the Kramer group is focused on development of novel methods involving organic chemistry, transition-metal catalysis, photocatalysis, enantioselective catalysis, and C-H functionalization as well as reaction mechanism elucidation. The research group is young and highly ambitious.

Responsibilities and qualifications
We are looking for a very motivated and ambitious candidate for a project within the field of photoinduced transition-metal catalysis for enantioselective C-H functionalizations. The focus will be on methodology development of novel reactions within this field. The work will include organic synthesis of starting materials and reagents, development and optimization of novel organic reactions, as well as substrate scope investigation including isolation and characterization of products. The successful applicant will undertake a four-month stay at AstraZeneca and benefit from both academic and industrial supervisors.

Candidates should have a two-year master's degree (120 ECTS points) or a similar degree with an academic level equivalent to a two-year master's degree.

Candidates should have a degree in chemistry or chemical engineering and a very strong background in experimental organic chemistry.

Experience with method development and catalysis is an advantage, but not a requirement.

The candidate must be able to work independently, but also participate in collaborations. Good communication skills in written and spoken English are required.

Most importantly, the applicant should strive toward scientific excellence, be highly motivated, ambitious, and hard-working. Only applicants who seek to be among the brightest in their field and to conduct science at the highest international level will be considered.

Approval and Enrolment
The scholarship for the PhD degree is subject to academic approval, and the candidate will be enrolled in one of the general degree programmes at DTU.
